A confidential report from the National Cyber Security Centre in the Netherlands informs that at least 1,800 companies are affected by ransomware across the world. The report names three file-encrypting malware pieces responsible for the infections that use the same digital infrastructure. Victims are from various sectors including the automotive industry, construction, chemical, health, food, and entertainment. The payment the attackers ask to provide the decryption key range from hundreds of thousands of dollars/euros to millions and victims without proper backup procedures are taking the cost.
